SOME RESULTS OF A STUDY OF THE DEEP-SEATED STRUCTURE OF THE EARTH'S CRUST IN THE BLACK SEA DEPRESSION AND ADJACENT AREAS.

Abstract

Some results of an analysis of the gravitational field of the Black Sea depression and of the adjoining territory along deep seismic sounding (DSS) profiles are presented. The gravity effect created by all the division surfaces of the earth's crust located by DSS is calculated. The fact is established of a discrepancy in the gravitational field and the behavior of the deep crust division surfaces in the western part of the water area. This established discrepancy is put forward as a proof of the different structure of the earth's crust in the western and eastern parts of the Black Sea water area. (Author)
